ICONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TwELVE O'CLOCK. An active demand for money is still experienced 111 the general discount market. The balances of bankers and others also show a large falling off, and great stringency therefore prevails. The mer cantile public are bringing forward numerous bills, W hich they kept last week in reserve, and as their payments on eccount of revenue are also large, the tveo circumstances combined exercise great influence. About 50,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for transmission to the Brazite. The Royal Standard, from Australia, has brought 47 8,000, and the Anglesey 148,376. On Thursday next the share list of the Sardinian Company is to be closed. During the last few days there has been very little animation in the Fereign and Colonial Pro duce Markets. Sugar has been in moderate request, at steady prices. For tea there has been a fair demand, and superior qualities have realised late quotations. Coffee has continued is moderate re. quest•, at about former rates ; while in rice, fruit, 41 Id tallow there has been little variation as regards Values. The committee of the Stock Exchange have ap- Pointed Friday next a special settling day in the !hares of the Imperial Bank of China, India, and tan (on transactions on and after the 4th of May " 1 Y), the British Shipowners' Company, the Na tional Provincial Marine Insurance Company, and the North London Railway new shares to be quoted in the official daily lists; and in those of the Lisbon 9 11 Mills Company to be marked in the bi-weekly tat only. The committee have also ordered that the shares of the Monmouthshire It •ilway and Canal Company and the Royal Life and Fir• Insnr• %Dee Company be quoted in the bi-weekly list. At a special meeting to-day of the European Bank, an interim dividend to the 31st May last, of 15s. per share, which was equal to 14 per cent. Per annum, was unanimously declared.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, MARLBOROUGH-STREET. STABBING A CONSTABLE —John O'Brien, a tall, rough fellow, from the neighbourhood of Drury-lane, was charged before Mt Knox, with being drunk and begging, and also with stabbing Police-constable Wm. Cane. 35 C. Wm. Cane, 35 C, said—This morning about one o'clock I saw the prisoner in St. James's-street, and watched him, and observed him stop two gentlemen and beg of them. The prisoner did not receive anything from the gentlemen, and then walked away and stopped another gentleman, who could not get rid of him. The gentleman seemed very frightened, and said, " Constable, will you get rid of this ruffian? he has been begging of me, and it is of nightly occurrence." The gentleman said he did not wish to charge the prisoner, but only wgnted to get rid of him. I told the prisoner to go away, and as he would not I rook him into custody, and he went very quietly till we got into York-street, St. James's, when he became very violent and struck mg on the head. 'We closed together and both fell and while o n I w theas five groundv e tried to bite me about tha body, ma ki n g use of frightful ex pressions.he kicked me on the head and minutes before assistance came. Oa getting the prisoner to the statim I felt a pain in my side, and then found that on taking pfl my coat that I had been stabbed in the side. I afterwards went to St. George's Hospital and had the wound dressed. Prisoner—Did you not so rake me ? me down and struck me, Cane—Not till you got Inspector Wilson—l wish for a remand. The prisoner was very violent at the station, and on telling him what ho was charged with ho said, will do for you too." " y ou when I come out I Mr. Knox—l shall remand the prisoner till Saturday and I am sorry such a thing has occurred. COMMITTAL WITHOUT A A. INB.—SAVAGE ASSAULT at A FEMALE.—AmeIia Bass, a young woman living in Ogle-street, was charged with violently assaulting Bur wood Plant, a workman in the employ of Mr Short, wheel wright, Ogle-mews. The complainant said that on the previous afternoon the prisoner and ano her female came into the workshop of his employer and attacked his master and a lad. He went to their assistance, wh-n the prisoner took up a piece of wood, g bim in_the eye, and inflict inggiven the prisoner no pro • an 1 vocation. a f g u h n a g s t i l t y a w t h o u i d , s t H i k e i nhad Mr Short said that about two months ago he gave a man the prisoner lived with into custody for stealing some lead, and ever since then the prisoner and her brother had threatened his wife, and he was fearful they would inflict some injury either to his person or property. Yesterday afternoon they picked a quarrel with his lad, and then came into his workshop and threw all sorts of things at him and his lad—millets, pieces of wood, and even wheels were taken up by them. He went fora policeman, and on his return found his man had been wounded and taken to the hospital. A lad named Sinclair, in MI Short's employ, said the prisoner and another female yesterday afternoon threw aome gravel in his face and then a stone, and on his going into his master's shop for protection they threw things at them, and the prisoner threw a piece of wood at Plant. Mr Knox said it was evident there was ill blood because Mr Short had done his duty in prosecuting a man who had robbed him. The prisoner would be committed for two months, and she might think herself fortunate she was not at the Central Criminal Court. The prisoner said, " Oh, I can do that on my head," as she was leaving the dock. MARYLE BONE. A FRACAS WITH VOLUNTEERS._John Murfin, aged 21, pianoforte maker, was charged with assaulting Sergeant James Tiffin, of the 19th Middlesex Volunteer Corps. Captain Sheen, of the firm of Sheen and Roscoe, solicitors, Bedford-row, appeared to prosecute, and Mr Pain defended. Sergeant Tiffin said he was a commercial traveller and a managing clerk. In company of a brother sergeant and a private of the same corps, ho was returning home from battalion drill. He was in the centre of the three and they were walking in the road. They were in uniform and had their rifles with them. As they were on the canal bridge at Camden-town, the prisoner and two of his companions made a lunge towards them. Private Webb seeing this made a rapid move to the front, in consequence of which he (Tiffin) received the full force of the push, and he put his left hand to save himself, He took no notice of what had occurred, when, from some thing that was said to the prisoner, he followed Tiffin and struck at him with his fist in his face. Prisoner then got his left arm round prosecutor's neck, and with his right hand punched him severely about the head, neck, and shoulders. He was so much punched and knocked about that he could scarcely raise his arm. Mr D'Eyncourt—How often Was you struck ? Tiffin—At least 20 times. He managed to get away from the prisoner, when he sprang upon his brother sergeant, and wrested his rifle from him, which, however, was again wrested from him by a civilian. He (Tiffin) went away, when the prisoner again came after him and attacked him, and how he got away he could not tell, as he was so ex hausted. In reply to the magistrate, witness said he did not either strike or speak to the prisoner. The prisoner and his corn panions ran against them purposely. The prisoner was not sober. Cross-examined--Whe n prisoner pushed against him he did not raise his rifle to strike him with the butt end. They did not push against the prisoner and his friends. In his opinion they came against them purposely, thinking that they were food for fun. Richard Webb, manufacturing jeweller, also a volunteer, corroborated Tiffin's statement, and added, that by the ad vice of the crowd they lett their rifles at an undertakers' and went as far as the Rad Cap after the prisoner, and gave him into custody, Weston, 171 S, said he took the prisoner into custody. lie and his companions were the worse for drink. For the defence, Mr Pain called Francis Lynch, pianoforte maker, who said they were coming down the road as the three riflemen were coming up. He would not say that the volunteers pushed against them, but he did not think that they pushed the volun teers.

Besides, you were in liquor, so that it is impro.. bable that you should be able to recollect much of it. Whether the sight of a rifleman incites you to acts of wan tonness, I don't know, hut I do believe that you lunged against them. Some men }awe a disposition to play a jest on this large body, The prosecutor has been very much ill-used by you and your companions, who were all in liquor, and it's you who seems to have been the principal. One thing is quite clear, that you were not sa isfled with defending yourself, but after prosecutor had gone you fol lowed him, and again attacked him. You see volunteers labour under a very great disadvantage, for they -must keep possession of their rifles under any circumstances, and in whatever way they are attakced, and they are strictly forbidden to use them unless under legitimate circum stances.

It appeared from the evi dence of NE, Kelly that the pri sorer had been in his se ri d ce four months as g e n e ral servant. In the course of that tim e he had lost amon g other things £9 or £lO worth of po sta g e. stam ps. About two months ago he missed a sheet of postage-stam ps -stampsvalue £l, from a locked.draw er in wh hi his n he e d.r°°ll. missed be di scover ed the lock had been tampered wit h. On Frida y last he missed another sheet of stamps, on the followin g d ay he spoke to the pri• soner about the loss of the s ta mps, and she said she had taken one sheet. He afterwards consulted the police, and gave the prisoner into custody. Mr Partridge—aow many stamps have you lost ? Mr Kelly—Xlo worth in all. I ana sure of £9 worth, but I believe £lO is the real extent of my loss. Mr Marsh said the girl owned to one sheet of stamps, and that was all, and he would advi se her to plead guilty to enable the magistrate to summarily dispose of the case. Mr Stoddart said it was right he should inform the ma gistrate that the prisoner had been convicted before, and had been in a reformatory three years, She had been out of the reformatory nine months, and had been in two situations since, keeping the first only three months. A letter from the prisoner's sister, dwellin g at No. 16, Brand street, Blandford-square, was found in the prisoner's box. It acknowledged the receipt of a parcel of postage stamps, which had been sold, and advised the prisoner to burn the letter, which she had not done. Mr Marsh submitted the letter was not evidence of any thing. Mr Partridge--I only receive this for my guidance, not as evidence. If the prisoner has been in custody before and convicted, I shall not dispose of the case summarily. Mr Stoddart—lt is a question whether the sister ought not to be charged as a receiver. The following letter was put in by Mr Stoddart. It was from the matron of rho Exeter Reformatory, and directed to the prisoner's first mistress:— "Girl's Reformatory, Exeter.

GREY moved the second reading of Gaols Bill, the object of which was to carry out a portion of the recom mendations of the Lords' committee, which reported on the subject of prison discipline last year. Amongst those re commendations were these—that the discipline, diet, and labour established in prisons should in future be uniform, and that the separate system should be enforced as far as was practicable. Some misapprehension, he observed, pre• veiled with regard to the fourth clause. It was believed that that clause would give extraordinary powers to the Home Secretary, and enable him to appoint Roman Catho lic chaplains in gaols against the wish of the county and local magistracy. He denied that the clause would have such an effect; but if it were thought by the house that it would, he should be ready to omit it from the bill, Its real object was to empower the Home Secretary to amend the prison rules at any period pf the year, instead of in the month of September only, as at present, Mr ADDER LEY was of opinion that no legislation to amend the present law relating to gaols could be satisfac tory that did not include some definition of hard labour and a schedule of rules for gaols, and which did not provide for all gaols being gradually adapted to the separate system and for a uniform and classified treatment of all prisoners. After the statement of the Home Secretary, that he had no objection to withdraw the fourth clause, he would not op pose the bill in its present stage. Mr N EWDEGATE moved, as an amendment, that the bill be read a second time that day three months, on the ground that it violated the principle of local self-govern. ment, and failed to provide any adequate security or re sponsibility to guard its application, and render it an in strument effective for good. The honourable gentleman admitted that it was desirable that a measure for the regu lation of gaols should pass, but he contended that the defi nition of the rules should not be left with the Home office, but should be laid down and enacted by Parliament itself, or the Home Secretary might, on his own responsibi lity, appoint Roman Catholic chaplains in prisons without consulting the justices, who would then be left to incur the odium of levying a tax for the expenditure. Mr BARB) W seconded the amendment, resting his opposition to the measure mainly upon its centralising ten dency. Sir J. PAKINGTON approved of the bill as a necessary one, and thought the right hon. gentleman had acted rightly in consenting to withdraw the fourth clause. Mr MAGUIRE commented on the speech of Mr Newde gate, and argued that the Roman Catholic prisoners had as much right to the ministrations of the priests of their reli gion as the Protestant prisoners had to theirs. The debate was continued by Mr WHALLEY and Mr WALTER. Mr MITFORD agreed that some legislation was neces sary, and was therefore prepared to ascent to the second reading of the bill. Mr HIBBERT was glad Sir G. Grey had intimated his intention to omit the fourth clause. He should be sorry, however, if another clause which gave the unwarrantable power to the Home Secretary of removing prisoners from certain local gaols and placing them in county gaols were retained. Mr S. ESTCOURT supported the bill, and, referring to the objectionable fourth clause, said it did not confer any power upon the Home Secretary that he did not already possess. Sir G. GREY, in reply, obs rued that whilst willing to strike out the clause he did so without admitting that there was the slightest foundation for the apprehension enter tained by Mr. Newdegate. On a division the numbers were — For the amendment Against it Majority The bill was then read a second time. COLLECTION OF TAXES BILL. On the order for resuming the adjourned debate on the motion for the third reading of the Collection of Taxes Bill, Sir J, TROLLOPE offered various objections to the bill, which, he thought, was utterly uncalled for, and which, he observed, though permissive, was only a prelude to a compulsory measure, and he moved to defer the third reading for three months. The amendment was seconded by Mr PACKE. Mr Cox and Mr S. Booth apposed the bill, which was supported by Mr Ayrton. Mr HORSF ALL, though he had voted for the second reading of this bill, said he should vote against the third reading, on the ground of its excepting the metropolis from its operation. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied to objections, and explained the reasons for excepting the metropolis from the operation of the bill, which did not apply to other large towns, reiterating the arguments he had urged he support of the measure in its earlier stages. Sir S. NOR L'HCOTE objected to the bill that, though called permissive, the decision was to be made by the Land Tax Commissioners, who were not elected by the taxpayers, whose opinions were not, therefore, tested upon the ques tion. He thought that the house, representing the ti,x payers, should not throw the decision upon the Commis sioners. Mr Locke, Mr Lewis, and Mr Newdegate continued the discussion amid much interruption. The house then divided— _ For the thi r d r ea ding Against it Majority The bill was therefore lost. The result was received with cheers from the Opposition benches. The Railway Construction Facilities Bill passed through committee, RAILWAY TRAVELLING (IRELAND) BILL. Sir C. O'LOG HLEN moved the second reading of the Railway Travelling (Ireland) Bill, the objects of which were tiN, deprive Irish railway companies of the power of abutting out whole districts of country from railway com munication on Sundays, and enacting that every railway company in Ireland should be compelled to run one train at least on ..'.tuntlays each way at such hours as might be approved by the Board of Trade; also to confer certain rights upon third-class passengers. Mr BLARE opposed the bill on the ground that there Was .- 40 Sunday traffic in Ireland to justify the house in putting the companies to such an expense. He proposed as an amendment that the bill be read a second time that day three months. The amendment was seconded by Lord NAAS, who said that already the smaller railways in Ireland were working at a loss, and that if this bill passed it would have the effect of increasing that loss. Such legislation was novel and un fair; no great public good would be accomplished, whilst much evil would be inflicted. Major GAPIN and Mr O'REILLY supported the bill. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEtWER said it was a question for the house whether, considering the na• tare of the powers conferred by the act of 1851, it was ad visable to impose this additional burden upon the com panies. The bill was opposed by Mr Hassard, Mr Lefroy, and Mr Whiteside ; and upon a division was thrown out by 40 to 21. The Pilotage Order Confirmation Bill and the Piers and Harbours Confirmation Bill passed through committee. The Lunacy (Scotland) Bill was read a second time. The Countess of Elgin and Kincardine's Annuity Bill was read a second time. Other bills were also advanced a stage, and the house adjourned.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS—This Evening, The LORD CHANCELLOR tgJk his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. AMERICA. Lord ST. LEONARDS presented a petition from Rackerford, praying that the house would adopt measures to induce her Majesty's Ministers to take steps for the restoration of peace in America. The Earl of DERBY said he had heard that a gentleman named Levey, a Montreal merchant, had arrived at Bos ton by a British passenger ship, and before he left the vessel, it was boarded, and be was seized by a United States' officer and imprisoned. There was no cause assigned for his arrest, and after a period of ten days he was liberated, on the 6th of June, without any cause assigned either for his imprisonment or liberation. He wished to know if any information on the subject had reached the noble earl the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs; and, if so, whether reparation had been demanded by him, or voluntarily offered by the United States ? Earl RUSSELL said he did not find in any of Lord Lyons' despatches any reference to the case. Perhaps the next despatch might contain something; if it did not he would write to Lord Lyons on the subj act. PRIVATE BUSINESS.

ADMIRALTY WORKS AND LANDS BILL, This bill was read a third Limo and passed. SUMMARY PROCEDURE (SCOTLAND) BILL, This bill passed through committee. ATTORNEYS AND SOLICITORS REMUNERA TION BILL, The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the second read • ing of this bill. It was, he thought, a very important measure, because the mode of remuneration at present in practice was thoroughly objectionable, and quite irrespec tive of the labour to be performed. The skilled practitioner was paid in precisely the same way as those of very small ability, and neither party were able to make contracts for certain work. Such an arrangement was very inconve nient, as it led to many evils, and he thought the time had now arrived when such a state of things should be put an end to. The system of copying and dras ing deeds by folio led to verbiage, the very parent of litigation; and the object of the present bill was to enable a lawyer to make a contract with his client to any given work for a certain price. The present object was to eman cipate the lawyer—to emancipate the client, and the result would be, that business would be facilitated, and what was done would be accomplished much quicker than was now '9 practice, with fewer faults and with more certainty.

COURT OF CHANCERY (Ireland) BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, and clauses from 1 to 11 were agreed to without amendment. On clause 12 Mr. GEORGE objected to the manner in which the bill was being pressed forward. Mr. WHITESIDE complained of the manner in which the bill was being forced throughout parliament, and said he thought it of so great importance that a bill making such extensive alterations should be dealt with in a house so thinly attended (there being no more than 18 or 20 mem bers present.) He was in attendance previous to the Speaker taking the chair, and only left the door to obtain a book in the library, and on his return he found that a house had been made, and in about four minutes nine of the roost important clauses had been smuggled through the house. He thought it highly unseemly in a Government, that narrowly escaped censure the other night by a majority of about half a dozen, and who met with a distinct defeat last night, to go on with this measure in such an objectionable manner, and at a day sitting. He again asked, was it at all seemly to press the bill forward under such circumstances. He should like to know if there was any mode by which the clauses already passed could be reconsidered. The CHAIRMAN (Mr Massey) said the only course •pen to the hon. gentleman was to move that he (the Chair man) report progress, and then on that being agreed to, to move that the bill be referred to a select committee. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND said he had been in the house since 12 o'clock, and if hon. mem bers having objection to the bill were not in attendance, he could not help it. He had bad to wait for half an hour before he could proceed. There was no desire on his part to press this bill forward with endue haste, or without the fullest discussion, but it was absolutely necessary, in order to dispose of the public business, to take this bill into con sideration at a morning sitting. Mr WHITESIDE then having formally made a motion to the first effect, went on to state his objections to many of the provisions of the bill. Sir It. PEEL rose to order. He thought it quite in competent for the right hon. gentleman to persevere in his extraordinary speech which had lasted already two hours and a half in the manner in which he was then proceeding His motion was for the chairman reporting progress, and he was entering into the details of the bill, when The CHAIM — INN rule' that the hon. gentleman was quite in order. Mr WHITESIDE then resumed his observations on the effe cts of the bill. 1.7 r VANCE thought it highly objectionable that a bill of such importance should be considered at a morning sitting, especially as mr.ny members interested in the matter were unavoidably absent. He put it to the right hon. gentleman the A'torney- General for Ireland whether the bill was one that ought to be considered in so thin a house. When the most importatat clauses had been passed there were not more than eight or nine mem bers present. The ATTORNEY GENERAL for IRELAND con sidered the tight hon. gentleman had abused the attention of the house by occupying it with matter as much relevant to the Great Mogul as to the provisions of the bill. lie was amazed at many of the statements of the right hon. gentleman, and he could hardly reconcile himself to the belief that the hon. gentleman had any other object but to obstruct and defeat the bill. Instead of being oppo se d to the measure, the entire bar of Ireland approved of it. H e was not to blame because the subject had not been fully discussed. Ho had been in his place at 12 o'clock, and although it was well known that the bill was to come on for discussion, there appeared to have been an arrangement between some parties to prevent its consideration. If the bill was not carried it should not fall through by any want of exertion on his part, especially as he believed it was cal culated to benefit Ireland very largely. Mr B 1.3 TT objected to the bill being sent to a select com mittee. The committee then divided on the motion that the Chair man do leave the chair, when there appeared— Ayes Noes .. Majority The result was received with cheers and much laughter. The CHAIRMAN accordingly left the chair and it being past 4 o'clock the sitting of the house was suspended. The house resumed at 6 o'ckck. THE DIVISION AT 4 O'CLOCK. Sir COLMAN O'LOUGHLEN told the Speaker, that by accident he voted with the " ayes " instead of the NOES. He was told he was bound to vote. He did so, and then reported the circumstance to the chairman. He (Sir Colman) thought his vote ought to bs placed with the "noes." The SPEAKER raid the hon. member having gone into the lobby with the Noes alter the question had been put from the chair, he was bound to vote with the " Noes," therefore his vote must remain undisturbed.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT TO A BRIDEGROOM.—A sad occurrence—perhaps unprecedented in its nature— tended to mar the festivities accompanying the marriage of a youthful couple at St Dunstan's Church, Fleet-street, on Thursday last. The bridegroom—whose father is a mem ber of the corporation—was engaged shortly before the wedding in packing up his trunks, and preparing for the continental tour which he had arranged to take with his young wife, when his left arm suddenly snapped near the elbow. The consternation which this untoward accident occasioned among his own family and friends, who were preparing to attend the ceremony, may be well imagined; and when the sad intelligence w.s communicated to the parents of the bride the carriages were in w i a n it t in h g av to in c g on b v ee ey n the bridal party to the church. It was of course concluded that the ceremony must be postponed , bu t the bridegroom wseetublyd two not medical m listentotheenp, he ro ly po g sa a l l , is a n n t dth io d e joint fulfill ing his engagement, and actually arrived at St. Dunstan's Church within a few minutes of the appointed hour. The ceremony was =ducted in a very impressive manner by the Rev. Mr Auriol, the rector, wha subsequently joined the numerous guests assembled at the suburban residence of the bride's father (one of his own churchwardens), and alluded to the misfortune of the morning in terms of kindly s ympathy and encouragement. The uncle of the bride endeavoured to dispel the inevitable gloom by observing that the calamity had at least one consoling feature, for it gave them a practical example of the courage and devotion of the young gentleman who was the hero of the occasion. They had heard of a certain champion of quite another sort of " ring," who had fought his American rival for one hour with a single arm, owing to a similar accident, and still carried the day; but what was this to compare with the pluck of his young friend, who having broken his arm at 9 a.m., went up smiling to the altar at 11, and carried off his young and charming wife in triumph ? We believe the bride, who was not at first informed of the full ex tent of the accident, exhibited a becoming fortitude under the trying circumstances of the day, and our readers will be glad to learn that owing to the satisfactory pro gress of the husband, the wedding trip is not likely to be long deferred. THE SIAMESE DURIAII.—The fruit here is ex. quisite, particularly the mango, the mangusteen, the pine•apple, so fragrant and melting in the mouth, and, what is superior to anything I ever imagined or tasted, the famous "durian" or " dourion," which justly merits the title of king of fruits. But to enjoy it thercughly one must have time to overcome the disgust at first inspired by its smell, which is so strong that I could not stay i n the same place with it. On first tasting it I thought it like the ilesh of some animal in a state of putrefaction, but after four or five trials I found the aroma exquisite. The durian is abou t two-thirds the sins of a jacca, and like it is encased in a thick and prickly rind, which pro tects it from the teeth of squirrels and other nibblers ; on opening it there are to be found ten cells, each containing a kernel larger than a date, and surrounded by a sort of white, or sometimes yellowish cream which is most delicious. By an odd freak of nature, not only is there the first repug nance to it to overcome, but if you eat it often, though with ever so great moderation, you find youself next day covered with blotchos, as if attacked with measles, so heating is its nature. A durian picked is never good, for when fully ripe it falls of itself ; when cut open it must be eaten at once, as it quickly spoils but otherwise it will keep for three drays. —.Mouhot's Travels in Indo-China. ANOTHER FEDERAL OUTRAGE.—We give in an■ other column the narrative of the arrest and impri sonment of Mr Samuel G. Levey of this city, while on his return from Europe, by the Federal authorities at Boston, as furnished by that active Federal apostle and sympathiser the Montreal Herald. Our contemporary's indignant comments on this ono of a hundred similar cases for which it had not a word of remonstrance is not a little singular, and suggests the inquiry whether the indignation in thi instance does not proceed less from the public v►rong done than private interest in the individual sufferer. Mr Levey has suffered from the vile spy system instituted and pre sided over here by "that late eminent and respectable statesman" Air Giddings. He had not even been guilty of the crime of giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the Ilnited4;iO3 sympathising with the South. It is true he is B:itt'a abject, resident in a British province, but his ympidlies have always been with the North; but, n evertheless, the chief of the Federal spies sent forth an edictf ): his pu,pishment, and he has been punished, and will gPt no,tEdress.
